Jesper Varn/Kotten, did you really draw those climbers??


I just went to 

http://www.geocities.com/SoHo/Studios/9334/sports.htm#climbing

and copied and pasted the following:

               ^\_
           o_/^   \
  ejm97    /_^     `_
           \/^       \
           / ^        `\
           ^             `


               /`.
              o_/ \
  ejm97        \/\ `.
                |    \
               /      `\
                         `

               /`.
              o_/_\
  ejm97        \/  `.
                |    \
               /      `\
                       `


         '        `\_
        /  __o_/     \
  ejm97'    /_        `_
     _/    /  \         \
   _/     /              `\
  /'                       `\

-------------------------------------------------
                      \
                       \,^^%---
                       <\/  \  I drew those
                       >        last year.
                       >^^
                      /| 
     ejm              | \


and I drew these this year:

                              /
                            ,'
                           !          `.
                     ()    '            \__
                      \  / !           c/ /
                      c_|/\           /--|
                   ,-/ `           ,--| .'
                                     / /
  ejm98                              `/
